The young person may wish to have an up-to-date summary of their HIV disease history as they may not remember early childhood illness, nor have understanding of their significance. This may be especially important for young people who have lost parents and cannot easily refer back to them for past events. Flow charts of the treatment history, CD4 progression and viral loads etc. may also be offered. These will also be very useful to the adult doctor during the transition process (see summary sheets below).
